You Shall Not Steal

How does “You Shall Not Steal” impact our integrity?

For the most part, when we think of “You Shall Not Steal”, we think about burglerizing someone’s home, stealing a car or just plain taking something that doesn’t belong to us and so this command is one that we feel that we can easily keep. What if stealing is not just about the big blatant thievery but little actions that we are tempted to get away with every day? What if stealing included things like taking advantage of others, bending the rules, borrowing without returning, plagiarism, receiving stolen goods, frivolous lawsuits or even saying one thing and then doing another? I wonder how many of us can say that we don’t steal then?

In this sermon

We’ll take a good look into both the big and small ways that we can steal and what the Bible prescribes as a solution.
